Official List Of 2026 WWE Royal Rumble Entrants So Far

Rhea Ripley Cody Rhodes WWE

The Royal Rumble is now less than two weeks away, but which WWE stars are set to be part of the hallowed Rumble matches?

For most of the western world, Christmas might be the most magical time of the year, but for WWE fans, that accolade undoubtedly goes to the Royal Rumble.

On January 31st, the Royal Rumble takes place in Saudi Arabia for the first time ever, with men’s and women’s Rumble matches set to take place. In 2025, Charlotte Flair returned from over a year out of action to win the Rumble while Jey Uso was able to stun John Cena and book a title match at WrestleMania 41.

WWE Royal Rumble Fields Building Up

Following the 19th of January edition of Raw, the list of WWE stars who have declared their entry into the Rumble matches is growing.

The women’s match is littered with former world champions as Rhea Ripley, IYO SKY, Liv Morgan, Roxanne Perez, Raquel Rodriguez, Bayley, Lyra Valkyria, and Asuka are officially set to compete in the 2026 women’s Royal Rumble.

Cody Rhodes was the first star to declare his entry into the men’s match after he lost his WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre. Gunther, Jey Uso, Rey Mysterio, Penta, and Dragon Lee will also be involved. There could be a major free agent making his mark in this match if advertising for the show is anything to go by.

It will be a busy night for Gunther as he will also face AJ Styles in a one-on-one match at the Royal Rumble, and if Styles loses, then he will be forced to retire.
